Did the Old Testament prophesy a gap between the crucifixion and the tribulation or Kingdom?
No. The Old Testament prophecies present the Messiah’s coming, crucifixion, the seven-year tribulation of Daniel’s 70th week, and Christ’s Kingdom as a steady flow with no interruption. They did not foretell a gap; that interruption is related to Israel’s rejection, not the Old Testament prophetic sequence.
Les teaches that the Old Testament program was predominantly Jew only, with exceptions, as God dealt with the nation of Israel. According to that Old Testament sequence, the Messiah would come, Israel would crucify Him, then the tribulation would come—the seven years of Daniel’s 70th week—and then Christ would return and set up His Kingdom. But Israel rejected it; as Dorothy said, they blew it. Les explains that all the Old Testament prophecies refer to this as a steady flow, with no interruption.
